Can't install presets [Resolved]

I downloaded HitFilm and the Star Wars presets back in December when they we're free. I tried to put the presets into the program but it didn't work. I recently got a new computer and thought it might work on it but again I couldn't put it into the program. Any help?

I looked up how to do it and it told me to go to the effects panel and then right click and then click on import presets. I did all this and when I went to choose the preset to import it wouldn't let me choose one.

If you're talking about the HitFilm 3 Express Special Edition you shouldn't have to install anything extra. The free effects are locked to the activation email so if you entered the same email in the fresh install you should already have them,

To check, start a new project and click the Effects tab. In the search box where it says "Search in Effects" enter "light" without the quotes. You should see the list shorten to Hue, Saturation and Lightness under Color Correction, Lightsword and Lightning entries under Generate and Light Wrap under Keying. The Lightsword and Lightning effects are the free Star Wars effects

Now I'm also having trouble with my presets. I downloaded the ember flurry, hologram, and Zack Snyder color grades from Inscape Digital, and when I import them it says one or more presets failed to import.

@Fulcrum2016 Which presets are you downloading and which version of the software are you running? Presets with a Pro badge (Purple Triangle) and no Express badge (Orange Triangle), will not open in Express. If a preset has a green "A" badge, then it requires one or more Express add-ons if you don't have the required add-ons, the preset will not import.

Javert personally opens and checks each submitted preset before he puts it on the Marketplace they do work.

Same issue... 1. Also, why 3D slide show from preset market doesn't get uploaded into HF 4 Express? 2. Why it prints only some letters of Cyrillic font and jumps out of text input when I try to enter others? 3. I used proxy for videos learning the product, but when I decided to change project it stack for about an hour on "Waiting on proxy tasks to cancel...". So I gave up and interrupted HF4E by window task manager...

I'm having a hard time adding a picture to presets. When I upload a regular image to wrap around a sphere to create a planet, the picture that I chose as JPG isn't a choice under the presets, even when I added the photo into the preset folder.
